tests: admin_users: make sure all custom IP permissions are cleared

test_delete_ip changes IP permissions and at the end tries to clean up by
deleting it again. When the delete fails, there is still a restricted IP
permission configuration, causing other tests to fail.
Use the recently added pytest fixture auto_clear_ip_permissions to fix this.
The fixture is extended to not only clear IP permissions for the default
user, but also for the 'regular' test user.

Similar cleanup code in test_add_ip is deleted because it serves the same
purpose, but would fail to execute if something went wrong earlier in the
test method.

This commit is very similar to an earlier commit that covers similar
add/delete IP functionality for the default user, in test_permissions.py.

=============
Customization
=============

There are several ways to customize Kallithea to your needs depending on what
you want to achieve.


HTML/JavaScript/CSS customization
---------------------------------

To customize the look-and-feel of the web interface (for example to add a
company banner or some JavaScript widget or to tweak the CSS style definitions)
you can enter HTML code (possibly with JavaScript and/or CSS) directly via the
*Admin > Settings > Global > HTML/JavaScript customization
block*.


Behavioral customization: rcextensions
--------------------------------------

Some behavioral customization can be done in Python using ``rcextensions``, a
custom Python package that can extend Kallithea functionality.

With ``rcextensions`` it's possible to add additional mappings for Whoosh
indexing and statistics, to add additional code into the push/pull/create/delete
repository hooks (for example to send signals to build bots such as Jenkins) and
even to monkey-patch certain parts of the Kallithea source code (for example
overwrite an entire function, change a global variable, ...).

To generate a skeleton extensions package, run::

    paster make-rcext my.ini

This will create an ``rcextensions`` package next to the specified ``ini`` file.
See the ``__init__.py`` file inside the generated ``rcextensions`` package
for more details.


Behavioral customization: code changes
--------------------------------------

As Kallithea is open-source software, you can make any changes you like directly
in the source code.

We encourage you to send generic improvements back to the
community so that Kallithea can become better. See :ref:`contributing` for more
details.
